“I have been taking students to IPC Exeter for almost 20 years. The school has always met all our needs, providing help and assistance on every occasion, both before leaving and during our stay.” Claudia, Italy, March 2026
For more than 20 years, IPC Exeter has welcomed school groups from across Europe for carefully designed English language projects in the UK.
We work either with agencies or directly with schools and teachers to create programmes that combine high-quality English teaching, homestay accommodation, excursions, activities and full support from our experienced team. Every programme is tailored to the needs of the group and the goals of the organising teacher.
Many of the teachers who bring groups to IPC Exeter return year after year. They choose us because of the trust we build, the quality of our programmes and the personal support we provide at every stage of the process.
A Trusted Partner for European Schools
IPC Exeter specialises in bespoke language projects for secondary school groups. We have worked with schools from Italy, Austria, Germany, France, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, Poland, Sweden, Norway and Finland, and we understand the expectations of teachers, students and parents.
Our programmes are designed for schools that want to offer their students something genuinely valuable: a safe, well-organised and life-affirming experience in the UK that builds confidence in English and creates memories that last for years.
More Than a School Trip
A successful language project is much more than a trip abroad. It is an opportunity for students to use English in real life, grow in confidence and experience British culture first-hand.
Even a short stay can have a powerful impact. Students return home more confident, more motivated and more engaged in learning English. Teachers tell us that these programmes often become one of the most memorable parts of their students’ school experience.
For the school itself, a well-organised project in the UK can also be a valuable part of its academic offer and an important point of distinction for prospective families.
Tailored to the Teacher, Designed for the Group
At IPC Exeter, we do not offer a one-size-fits-all package. We work closely with the organising teacher or head of department to create a programme that fits the age, level, interests and objectives of each group.
Our all-inclusive programmes can include:
private coach transfers from the arrival airport
carefully selected homestay accommodation
English lessons with experienced teachers
excursions and evening activities
local travel passes
full support before and during the stay
Every project follows a proven structure, but each one is shaped around the needs of the school.
Why Teachers Choose IPC Exeter
Teachers choose IPC Exeter because they want a partner they can trust.
They value our experience, our British Council accreditation, our attention to detail and our commitment to personal service. They know that we care about the success of the programme, not just the booking.
Many of our partner schools have worked with us for many years. Once a school discovers the value of a well-run IPC Exeter programme, the relationship often continues for a long time.
A Special Experience in Exeter
Exeter offers school groups a very special kind of UK experience: safe, welcoming, historic and genuinely British. While other destinations may be closer to major airports, Exeter offers something many larger centres cannot: a more personal, more authentic and more focused environment for young learners.
Here, students can study English, live with British host families and enjoy a full cultural programme in a city that is both beautiful and manageable for school groups.
